Earth Song
Sergei Lazarev Lyrics

What about sunrise
What will happen with tomorrow, will we still have a tomorrow?

What about rain
What will happen with our environment, will we still have a balanced ecosystem?

What about all the things that you said we were to gain...
What about the promises we made to ourselves and to the future generations about building a better and sustainable world?

What about killing fields, is there a time
What about the atrocities we commit, will that ever stop?

What about all the things that you said was yours and mine...
What about the notion of ownership that creates disparities and inequality in our society?

Did you ever stop to notice all the blood we've shed before
Have we ever taken a moment to reflect on the violence and brutality that has occurred throughout history?

Did you ever stop to notice the crying Earth the weeping shores?
Have we ever paid attention to the disasters and destruction we have caused to the planet we live on?

What have we done to the world, look what we've done
What destruction and harm have we caused to the world?

What about all the peace that you pledge your only son...
What about the idea of peace and harmony that we all aspire to, and the sacrifices we need to make to achieve it?

What about flowering fields, is there a time
Is it still possible to restore the beauty and fertility of nature?

What about all the dreams that you said was yours and mine...
What about the goals and aspirations that we all share, and the collective responsibility we have to achieve them?

Did you ever stop to notice all the children dead from war
Have we ever acknowledged and mourned the innocent lives lost due to conflicts and wars?

Did you ever stop to notice the crying Earth the weeping shores?
Have we ever realized the impact of our actions on the planet and its inhabitants?

I used to dream, I used to glance beyond the stars, now I don't know where we are
I used to have hope for a better future and explore endless possibilities, but now I feel lost and unsure about the direction we are headed in.

Hey, what about yesterday (What about us)
What about the past, and the mistakes and lessons we can learn from it?

What about the seas (What about us)
What about the oceans and the life within them that is being threatened by pollution and climate change?

The heavens are falling down (What about us)
The world is facing global issues such as climate change, deforestation, and pollution that are negatively affecting everything on the planet, what are we doing to address this?

I can't even breathe (What about us)
The air quality is declining, what are we doing to address this issue and protect our health?

What about the bleeding Earth (What about us)
The Earth is suffering from the damage we have caused to it, what are we doing to stop the bleeding?

Can't we feel its wounds (What about us)
Why are we not aware of the harm we are causing to the natural world and the impact it has on all life on Earth?

What about nature's worth (ooo, ooo) It's our planet's womb (What about us)
What is the value and importance of nature in our lives, and how can we preserve it for future generations?

What about animals (What about it) We've turned kingdoms to dust (What about us)
We have caused the extinction and suffering of many animal species, what are we doing to protect them and their habitats?

What about elephants (What about us) Have we lost their trust (What about us)
We have disrupted the natural behavior and trust of wild animals, and what actions are we taking to restore it?

What about crying whales (What about us) We're ravaging the seas (What about us)
We have caused immense damage to marine life and its ecosystem, what are we doing to stop this?

What about forest trails (ooo, ooo) Burnt despite our pleas (What about us)
We have destroyed natural habitats and forest areas, despite the pleas for protection and conservation, what can be done to halt this damage?

What about the holy land (What about it) Torn apart by creed (What about us)
Many cultural and religious areas of significance have been damaged and destroyed by conflicts and wars, what are we doing to preserve these places for future generations?

What about the common man (What about us) Can't we set him free (What about us)
Many people continue to suffer from poverty, oppression, and lack of basic rights, what can we do to help them achieve freedom and equality?

What about children dying (What about us) Can't you hear them cry (What about us)
Children are innocent victims of conflicts and suffering, and their cries for help are ignored, what can we do to protect them?

Where did we go wrong (ooo, ooo) Someone tell me why (What about us)
We must realize where we went wrong so we can begin to make positive changes for the future.

What about babies (What about it) What about the days (What about us)
We must consider future generations and the world they will inherit, what can we do to make their future brighter?

What about all their joy (What about us) What about the man (What about us)
We must consider the happiness and well-being of all people, of all genders, races, and backgrounds, and ensure they can live fulfilling lives.

What about the crying man (What about us) What about Abraham (What was us)
We must consider the pain and suffering of all individuals, regardless of their religious or cultural background.

What about death again (ooo, ooo) Do we give a damn
We cannot remain indifferent to the pain, suffering, and harm we cause, and must take action to ensure a better future.
